Miller is a complete liability...It's sad that out of him, McLaughlin and Pratt id pick the latter first.

The announcement, sorry you all got pissed wet through for nothing, the game is abandoned.

Maybe he needs a CM to take charge and offer him a pass? Morishita and TGH were hiding 40 yards upfield whenever Miller was in possession.

I'm glad you agree. Take it up with those that hold that opinion. 👊

Genuinely, you’d have to be stark raving mad to risk coming up for it as an Oxford fan.

The announcement, sorry you all got pissed wet through for nothing, the game is abandoned.

Maybe we should start a new topic, how to keep the rain off the Ewood pitch.

Made a good save with his leg right at start of second half -but don't let that interfere with anyone's prejudice. 🙂

Too much rain in the Blackburn area -added to the list.

Too short of notice. Not chance at home though:

Pitch issues. Glad really, keeps the thread free from whinging about refs 😉

miller needs telliing to concentrate on defending (which he is good at at) and stop trying to pass the ball (he`s shocking at it)

Pitch issues aside, how bad was the first 20 or so minutes. Aimlessly and ponderously passing it from side to side before giving it to Miller to gift the opposition possession.

Can we play Oxford away on Tuesday?

Which is ironic because that's one of the most moronic fuckin comments I've ever read on here. We'll done, top marks👊

Haven't heard a pin drop from these two pillocks for months...reality of your utter incompetence hitting home boys?

you are supposed to be able to complete your fixtures,unless it`s off an obvious weather event or issue beyond your control,failure to complete games usually means a league investigation and a sanction,other games in the area managed to finish their matches so it really is on us,could be a fine,warning or in the worst case a pitch closure and ordered to play elsewhere (can`t see that happening unless it continues at every home game)

I’ve not been able to get to a home game due to work commitments since the Ipswich game. So I’ve not seen a game completed at a Ewood in over 10 weeks! Shambles from top to bottom.

The annual Rovers manager resignation day isn't until a couple of weeks into February, giving enough time for them to stew after a the broken promises surrounding a failed January transfer window before then sorting out an exit strategy

You can make out what they say on that 30 year old sound system?!

You are 100% correct. The league has every right to say we provide you with plenty of funds to run your club, there are physical ways of protecting your pitch (a tank drainage system) if you chose not to we will do our best to get you out of the league.

Extremely disappointing (once again) to be coming away from Ewood piss wet through with no points despite being in a winning position. Once again, a lot of rain fell this afternoon and it’s obvious to everyone that the drainage system could not handle it. However, realistically, what could have been done to prevent this happening again. It’s not like there can be a complete overhaul of the pitch until the summer. The EFL have no other option but to order a replay as per Ipswich but may decide to give the club an ultimatum that could include sanctions if the problems with the pitch are not addressed by next season.

Again, are they not making money out of this by charging full price for the game, then half price (or whatever) for the rearranged game.

We have a 3 week break in home games after 4th January (FA Cup aside). Roughly the same time non-league Rochdale are allowing to install new drainage and a new pitch: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/ce91x2pdelno Just get it booked in tomorrow. If we're drawn at home in the cup I don't see it being an issue to switch to being away...

There was an apology on the ground by the announcer when the abandonment was announced
